Much of Salford's Sacred Trinity church dates from 1752, and this grand old building stands defiantly whilst modern city construction work seems to be happening all around.
One of the places we wanted to visit on our tour was Whitby Abbey. The first monastery on the site was probably founded in 657, although this was destroyed by Danish marauders around 867. It was then re-established under the Benedictine rule in the 1070s by Reinfrid, a Norman knight who took monastic orders. After the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII, it was bought by the Cholmley family, who demolished many of the monastic buildings, but preserved the abbey church. A print made in 1711 shows the abbey still more or less complete except for its roof, but over the centuries which followed, the building gradually deteriorated. It wasn't helped by being shelled by the German navy on 16 December 1914. Apparently, tourists have assumed that the remains are those of Dracula's castle: the abbey doesn't actually feature in the book, although the town of Whitby does.

Ten years after one of the worst terrorist attack in British history, St Paul's has led mourning families, survivors and the nation in remembering the 52 dead and countless injured of the 2005 London bombings.
At the service on Tuesday, 7 July 2015, also attended by HRH The Duke of York, Prime Minister, Mayor of London and members of London's emergency services, the Bishop of London called London an 'astonishing' city in his sermon.

This is a photograph from the sixth annual running of the 'Streets of Athboy' 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held in the town of Athboy, Co. Meath, Ireland on Friday 9th August 2019 at 20:00. Tonight's event follows on from the very successful previous five runnings of the event. The race event was organised very successfully again by Mick Priest and his team of volunteers and helpers from the local athletics club Father Murphy AC and the local community. The Fr. Murphy club is based in rural Meath between the towns of Ballivor and Athboy. A credit to their establishment the club boasts facilities on 17 acres including a grass 400m and 1KM all weather walking track. Proceeds of the race this evening will contribute towards Fr. Murphy AC's efforts to build a tartan track at the club facility in Frayne. The support shown by the running community highlights the support which Fr. Murphy's AC has within the county of Meath and beyond.

The race itself starts on the Navan road approximately 1KM from the Registration Hall. The race follows a route away along the main street of Athboy and then turns left at the Cosy Pub onto the Kildalkey Road. This brings participants through a series of bends before a long straight stretch leading to a country laneway where there is a short loop before returning back onto the Kildalkey road. This returns back on the route where the race started on. The race finishes in the grounds of Athboy Community Centre. It is a good fair course and many participants feel that it offers the opportunity for fast running and setting personal bests. The first mile is well recognised as being particularly fast. Prizes were given in all of the usual categories. There was also an opportunity for those who registered early to get a lovely technical t-shirt for the race. Overall the race, as part of the Meath AAI series of races, continued and maintained the high standard of road race organisation in County Meath by Meath running and athletic clubs.

A visit to the National Trust property of Melford Hall in Long Melford. It was the closest National Trust property to Sudbury in Suffolk.
Melford Hall is a stately home in the village of Long Melford, Suffolk, England. It is the ancestral seat of the Parker Baronets.
The hall was mostly constructed in the 16th century, incorporating parts of a medieval building held by the abbots of Bury St Edmunds which had been in use since before 1065. It has similar roots to nearby Kentwell Hall.
It passed from the abbots during the Dissolution of the Monasteries and was later granted by Queen Mary to Sir William Cordell. From Cordell it passed via his sister to Thomas and Mary Savage before being sold back into another male Cordell line. During the Stour Valley Riots of 1642 the house was attacked and damaged by an anti-Catholic crowd. In 1786 it was sold to Harry Parker, son of Admiral Hyde Parker.
Beatrix Potter was a cousin of the family and was a frequent visitor to the hall from the 1890s onwards.
One wing of the hall was gutted by fire in February 1942 but rebuilt after World War II, retaining the external Tudor brickwork with 1950s interior design.
The hall was first opened to the public in 1955 by Ulla, Lady Hyde Parker. In 1960 it passed into the care of the National Trust. It is generally open on weekend afternoons in April and October, and on afternoons from Wednesday to Sunday during May to September.
The Hall grounds host a number of events including the "Big Night Out" every November to celebrate Guy Fawkes Night and from 2013 the annual LeeStock Music Festival.

The Cycladic houses of the island of Santorini take after other islands in the Cyclades, with white limewashed exteriors, white or colorful trim, low-slope roofs enclosed by parapets, and casement windows. This, combined with the island’s dramatic topography, create a unique built environment, with houses being terraced along the steep slope at the top of the caldera’s rim, and rising on the comparatively level ground above. The Cyclades, one of the most scenic parts of Greece, are known for this style of architecture, which is found throughout Santorini.
"Doubles" opened up. Many eat it on the sidewalk by the vendor...not me (folks raised me never to consume food on or near the street). It tastes awesome!

July 2015 - a month filled with inspiring milestones of #SpaceExploration.
The 4th anniversary of the final launch of #Atlantis #STS135 on July 8th, which my family and I were able to share with many other @SpaceTweeps in person in Florida.
The 40th anniversary of the #HistoricHandshakeInSpace of American Brigadier General Thomas Stafford and Russian cosmonaut and national hero Alexey Leonov during the #ApolloSoyuzTestProject on July 17th.
The 46th anniversary of the #MoonLanding on July 20th, when 3 men left our #BlueDot and 2 of them took the very first small steps on a "foreign world" ever - in the name of their team of 400.000 behind and of mankind as a whole.
The 50th anniversary of first Mars encounter of #Mariner4 probe, the first robotic visit to Mars on July 14th.
My cherry on the cake was being able to watch the #PlutoFlyby of #NewHorizons on July 14th with my little son (nearly 5 years old now), whose eyes were glued on the livecast and who was jumping with excitement on his little chair, when people on the screen were waving their flags and cheering and smiling while witnessing history in the making.
I am thankful to live in times were our boundaries are being pushed constantly and mankind dares to boldly go, where nobody has gone before - together, in global teams.
Being able to share this with our little son since his early months and passing on our love of our beautiful blue marble and everything beyond is a precious gift.
Scrolling through pics of our travel adventures made me aware again, how much I am looking forward to the times, when @LightspeedLeo will be old enough to understand what he and his travelbuddy @PinkLilDragon saw and whom they met together during all our adventures with our growing number of @Spaceholix friends from all around the world and also with so many of our #SpaceHeroes and #ScienceHeroes in person and via social media.
I thank all for passing on the torch of inspiration and dedicate my designs to all involved in these historical events of mankind - taking countless small steps, adding up to giant leaps, culminating in #NewHorizons leaving all our planets behind and passing by #Pluto (which will ALWAYS remain a planet in my heart (dwarf or not ;-) )
And I am excited having again hopped on board of the inspiring @OneEarthMessage @NewHorizonsMessage campaign by #VoyagerGoldenRecord design director and GalaxyGarden designer Jon Lomberg and his lovely wife Sharona and their global team, who are working on sending a message to outer space.
So in the name of all @SPACEHOLIX out there - we are on board together now, ready to be sent to @NewHorizons2015.
( I admit being a tad superstitious with numbers, so I waited for my lucky number 113, as 5 years ago "1+1=became3" ;-) )
This is YOUR final call to send YOUR name or those of YOUR loved ones and may be even YOUR message and #SpeakForEarth.

One acre National Park Service site, SH-6, 1 mile east of Natchez Trace Parkway. Monument: In memory of the men of the Federal and Confederate Armies who took part in the Battle of Tupelo or Harrisburg, July 14-15, 1864 which resulted in a victory for the Federal forces under Major General Andrew J. Smith. One of the Confederate wounded was Forrest, shot in the foot during the fighting.
While I was walking around the battlefield an old fellow stopped his pickup truck, got out and came over to me.. he said when he was young his grandmother who had lived nearby had told him of the terrible noises of the battle.. he recalled that she told him it sounded like "a cane break" on fire. I was touched and honored that he shared the memories with me.

Pictures of Avianca A320s at JFK Airport in NYC on November 3rd & 5th, 2022. Avianca is based in Columbia and is the second largest airline in Latin America. The planes photographed include an A320-214 (tail number N956AV) and two A320-251N (tail numbers N818AV & N962AV). I believe these were all headed to Bogota, Columbia, a five and a half hour flight. These are taken at the Pool Deck on the top floor of the Hughes Wing. This is one of the two buildings for guest rooms adjacent to Eero Sarrinen's iconic TWA Flight Center, that serves as the public spaces for the TWA Hotel. Plane watching at the TWA Hotel on November 3rd & 5th, 2022.

This piece depicts the environment of Venice, Italy during the 1700s. Judging by the different types of boats, the renewable resources that can be seen are wind energy and wave energy. The only intermediate-renewable source in the painting is fresh water, which is being used for transportation. Some fields of study that can be represented in this painting are history, geography, economics, engineering, and anthropology. The artist would most likely have an ecocentric view because the painting depicts how people in Venice coincide with the environment given to them by the geography of the city. The amount of human influence in this picture of Venice is pretty high. Considering there wasn’t a lot of technology to interfere with the environment back then, the people seem to have created an environment more suitable to their favor economically by removing anything natural that existed before. The energy that would be in the landscape would fall under the chemical energy diagram in Figure 2.14 of the textbook because the only energy being used is from the ocean which takes in heat and releases it. The ecosystem is impossible to tell due to human development, but the artist doesn’t seem to be showing the land as he is the ocean. This is the ecosystem that is being portrayed, and the part the artist wants to illustrate. The carbon cycle is an interesting cycle to develop in this representation of the landscape because since there is an absence of vegetation and animals, the only source of carbon would be from the ocean. Thus, the amount of carbon in the atmosphere would become much lower. The food cycle would be very small considering the amount of tampering to the ecosystem. The cycle would consist of soil bacteria from the ocean floor, to earthworms, to toads along the surface. Insects would also be around and taken in by toads and passing birds. The environment would be in a state of primary succession because all life that was there before has been built over. Human interference has caused a halt to any ecosystem being created anytime soon.

The Black Hills National Cemetery is one of the most bucolic of the nation's national cemeteries. Located near Sturgis, SD, just off of I-90 - the setting is just lovely - surrounded by forested hills. One MOH recipient is buried there - Sgt. Charles Windolph. Windolph was a private at the Battle of Little Big Horn (aka Custer's Last Stand), on June 25-26, 1876. Windolph, along with three comrades during the two-day disaster for the US 7th Cavalry, maintained a position to keep the entire command supplied with water.
From Wikipedia: "The 7th Cavalry overall suffered 52 percent casualties [at the battle]. Every soldier of the five companies with Custer was killed. In 1878, the army awarded 24 MOH to participants in the fight on the bluffs for bravery, most for risking their lives to carry water from the river up the hill to the wounded."
Windolph survived the battle, and lived to the age of 98.
